The Radical Attitude and Modern Political Theory focuses on the appearance of modernity that can be best described as radical. First appearing in the sixteenth century, the attitude is best seen not as a coherent ideology or tradition but as a series of conceptual resources that continue to inform political discourse in the present.

Covering a couple rather than a single, dominant ruler, 'Ferdinand and Isabella' looks at the issue of gender and the dynamics of marriage over 35 years, as well as the practice of monarchical power. The book covers Ferdinand's and Isabella's struggle to establish their regime and then work out an elaborate reform programme in Church and state.
